Lisa Chaffey, In a Pickle’s owner and founder, is a highly experienced virtual assistant who instinctively
knows what her clients need – often before they even do themselves! 
With over 13 years experience in project management and business administration services, she offers a safe and very capable pair of hands to all kinds of businesses in the Thames Valley and beyond. Lisa set up In a Pickle in January 2009 after quickly realising the need for an efficient, reliable and pro-active virtual assistant service in today’s more flexible working environment. Since then, she has taken this concept one step further by helping them to grow their business. Her proactive approach to the VA concept has given many small enterprises the step-up they so desperately needed.
As a successful business owner herself, Lisa fully understands the importance of taking ownership of a project. In fact, she’s renowned for treating her clients’ businesses with the same care, consideration and confidentiality as her own. Lisa works from her own fully equipped office premises in Oxfordshire and is fully conversant with the latest technologies.
Her main aim is to help you make the most of your time – in next to no time you’ll be enjoying working smarter, not harder. As a pro-active virtual assistant, Lisa will readily suggest simple systems and working methods to improve the efficiency of your business. Lisa knows that time is precious – but your money is too. This is why she charges an hourly rate, using sophisticated software to ensure you only ever pay for the time worked.
Lisa offers a personal, flexible and highly intelligent virtual assistant service – a true asset to your business!
